I just took my 6 year old, Matthew, to school. He goes to a traditional program school, they stress discipline, academics and patriotism. They stress following the rules. We like that, so that's why we sent our sons there.
In the car rider drop off line, things are supposed to be simple, you enter the lot, turn left, choose a line (there are only 2 ), and wait your turn. The security guard signals you when to let your kid out, and when to move to the exit line. You stay in your car, your kid gets out and goes to school. Its simple, safe and effective. It should only take 5 minutes tops. If everyone follows the rules.
This morning things were worse than usual. We have always had a few people who didn't follow the rules. Parked in the middle, walked their kids across the flow of traffic, that sort of thing. Not too bad usually. Not today. Today it was chaos. Parents were trying to back out of the car rider line, driving against the flow of traffic, letting kids out in the middle of the lot. It felt like chaos to me. I hate that.
The principal came out as I was leaving to try and restore order. I didn't envy her job right then.
What is wrong with you people? Just follow the rules, sheesh, its not hard!

Well snack shop! I think you hit the nail right on the head. Apparently, you need a PhD in traffic control to comprehend the two little rules. Best of luck on your travels.
Your fav in Texas!
Interesting to know.
